the study has been ongoing for 38 years, not sure a few months old post would be that inaccurate (aka it’s ok! ;) )

rusticus1773, in Arresting Vladimir Putin in South Africa would be 'declaration of war', says Ramaphosa

War, like what’s happening in Ukraine?

sun_is_ra, in Egypt president pardons rights activist Patrick Zaki and lawyer Mohammed al-Baqer

Background for those who don’t know: ElSis came to power after a coup against Islamic regime . hehass only military education with no knowlage of economy, politics, diplomacy nor even ability to speak any language beside his mother tongue. Despite that he has massive ego as well as mentioning he communicate with God.

His policy for solving all internal problems is imprisoning / killing while forgein policy is mostly focused on trying not to piss anyone off.

Al-Baqer was a lawyer for a very prominent Egyptian figure Alla Abdul fattah. A well educated, well known activist (both in politics and in promoting Linux / open source). Anyway, AlBaqer was arrested while being in police station with his client Alla Abdul fattah.

The charges are standard and unified for all political arrested: abusing social media channels, joining terrorist group, spreading false news.

Patrick George was arrested for complaining about cases of oppression against Christians. Same standard charges.

Why they are being released is because elSisi is becoming weaker and weaker as the economy is taking deep dive to oblivion due to lot of bad economical decisions from his part

lemmyshmemmy, in NATO's latest moves could bottle up much of Russia's naval power

Yeah, if there was an actual war with Russia vs all the NATO countries, they’d only be able to sail from Murmansk and way over near Vladivostok

freagle, in Wagner mercenaries and Belarus hold military exercises near Poland's border

It’s only a defensive alliance, don’t worry about it. If Poland doesn’t get aggressive, they have nothing to be concerned with.

perviouslyiner, in Most Brits reckon Brexit has failed, new poll finds

James Acaster’s great analogy is always relevant here!

yabai, in Who is the Iraqi Shi'ite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr?

Boy, religious indoctrination sure is scary. Wide-scale brainwashing leading to death and destruction for 20+ years in this case.

TheYang, in Four arrested over €1.6m Celtic coin theft
@TheYang@lemmy.world avatar

I’ve been wondering if it really is the right decision to put things on display which have both, a significant material value, and historical value.

The gold of these gold coins seems to have had roughly 250,000€ in value.
That seems like a lot of incentive to steal and melt it down.

And what is the benefit of displaying the actual items? It’s not rare that the public is only shown a fake, one that just looks good enough to get the impression of the item.

I was thinking (and haven’t decided yet if the idea is good) that stuff of this nature (material value + historical value) may be better off being in a more secured place somewhere, where it still can be studied by people when required, but the public can’t get at it as easily. With fakes being shown in Museums. Those fakes could them allow more interaction (like touching a dinosaur teeth/bones), and the original doesn’t suffer damage from people touching it, light and/or people stealing it and melting it down.

burntbutterbiscuits,

Museums don’t generally show fakes they usually show the originals

fugepe, in Texas border agents allegedly laid the wire traps that ensnared a pregnant 19-year-old woman, as part of Greg Abbott's plan to keep migrants out.

Why she was crossing illegally? Thought Mexico was a great country.

DestroyMegacorps, in Mystery Disease Outbreak in Egyptian Village Alarms Health Authorities: Investigation Underway - BNN Breaking

Oh come on there will be another pandemic? Yikes

MaDeX, in It's Official, Say NOAA and NASA: This June Was the Hottest Ever Recorded on Earth

That’s amazing 👏

Spacebar, in Wishma Sandamali: The siblings suing Japan over their sister's death
@Spacebar@lemmy.world avatar

For a country that’s already fallen off the population cliff, they surely won’t be fixing their future problems by letting foreigners in.

Guess they will have to become a weak country of retirees before anything changes.
